Ishmael had recently found how calming it was to be able to gaze into the sunset by herself. They still had a few days until reaching land, and being at sea was... bittersweet. Her heart felt at peace, when before it had been ridden with anxiety, and hatred. There were other messy feelings she had to work out through, but for now, this was right.

It was her path, from now on- not Ahab's.

Ishmael was still on search for a purpose — but isn't that a purpose on itself? It's silly, in hindsight, how it starts to make sense. All the turmoil she went through, and now it was as if she'd come out for air. The sound of footsteps snaps her out of her reverie, and she turns her head. Her buoy.

The ever nostalgic scent, alongside the sound of waves, brings a sense of peace to Ishmael. Freedom, perhaps. And the possibility of something new.
